Chapter 24 Lantern Festival Palace Banquet I
Chu Ying pulled Xin Wei with a lot of emotion.
"Sister Liu is very busy now, I thought that if I didn't just take care of a group of women, no one would make trouble. actually has to take care of the clothing, food, housing and transportation of the palace maids, a lot of accounts to be accounted for every day, and the Lantern Festival banquet is also prepared...... What's a good job? ”
The busy ones didn't have time to take care of her, dealing with the same pile of dry numbers every day, Chu Ying really felt bored.
"Countless people are vying for this errand." Xin Wei said.
Chu Ying sighed: "The days of eating, drinking, and enjoying yourself well, but you are so busy, and you have to be held accountable if you make mistakes, what is there to fight for in this errand, is it enough to enjoy the blessings!" ”
How many people can't think like this? Chu Ying categorically couldn't figure it out.
Xin Wei held up a finger to her lips.
"Don't say it, the errand was given by the emperor, and you will offend the emperor if you say that."
Chu Ying hurriedly covered her mouth, and a pair of almond eyes glanced around, "If someone complains, I won't admit what I said, anyway, it's ...... if the queen doesn't admit it."
Before she finished speaking, her expression suddenly became distorted, and she covered her stomach and said, "I'll go to a toilet!" ”
Then it flew out like a gust of wind.
Chu Ying is very good at eating, and she doesn't care whether she is healthy or not, she eats food that hurts her stomach without control, and it is common for her to eat bad stomach, and Xin Wei is not unusual.
Xin Wei waited quietly in place, and in half an hour the emperor and the eldest princess would arrive, and they would be seated at that time.
Several palace concubines stood not far away, Cao Zhaoyi and Yu Zhaoyi were surrounded by them, and suddenly, Cao Zhaoyi looked at Xin Wei's side.
"This is ......," Cao Zhaoyi looked curious.
Yu Zhaoyi said with a smile: "This is Xin Jieyu." ”
Now everyone in the harem knows that Chu Jieyu and Xin Jieyu are somewhat similar to Concubine Liu, Chu Jieyu is already familiar with the palace because of the eldest princess, so it is not difficult to guess that the one in front of her is Xin Wei of Huguang Pavilion.
couldn't hide, Xin Wei bowed shallowly.
Cao Zhaoyi said with interest: "Is this Xin Jieyu who was rewarded with a jar of wine by the Ministry of Internal Affairs?" ”
"Yes." Xin Wei said.
Cao Zhaoyi smiled with her eyebrows: "I heard that it is still the meaning of the master above, our sisters have been figuring it out early in the morning, but they still can't figure out why this jar of wine is, can Xin Jieyu know the reason?" Tell us about it. ”
The masters who can interfere with the internal affairs are none other than the emperor, the queen mother, and the eldest princess. It can't be the emperor, so there is a high probability that it will be the queen mother or the eldest princess.
Which master it was, and why she made this will, made her feel very broken.
"The concubine doesn't know why, but the concubine has heard a word." Xin Wei's expression did not move, and she read clearly, "There is good wine in the honor, there is no dust in the chest, I don't know if I am spoiled, and I move as expected." It can be seen that wine is a treasure. ”
Cao Zhaoyi originally intended to make fun of her, but if she couldn't make fun of her, she refused to give up easily.
"It's a matter of fact, I almost scared you," Cao Zhaoyi sneered, "I've heard that there are many people who burn alcohol and commit suicide, I'm afraid which master wants you to follow suit?" ”
Indeed, there are such deeds among the people, spilling liquor all over the house, and if it burns at a little, it will surely die.
Cao Zhaoyi said it so bluntly, many eyes around her turned to Xin Wei, and they were all suspicious.
Xin Wei smiled lightly and asked rhetorically, "Why did Sister Zhaoyi say this?" It is taboo for the concubine to commit suicide. If the master wants my life, why don't you give Bai Aya poisonous wine? ”
The king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die, and he wants her to die as a Jieyu, why bend and bend?
Obviously, the reason for this altar Du Kang is by no means here.
Cao Zhaoyi's phoenix eyes turned a few times, but she couldn't find a reasonable explanation, so she felt more and more embarrassed, and turned into a sneer with annoyance, and deliberately asked, "Which palace does Xin Jieyu live in?" ”
Without waiting for Xin Wei to answer, Cao Zhaoyi said loudly again: "Is it Huguang Pavilion?" ”
"What is the place of the Lake Light Pavilion? I haven't heard of a serious master who lives in the lake and the light pavilion! ”
As we all know, Huguangxie lived in the previous place, and it was a special drama for the first emperor and concubine.
After the death of Concubine Chen, the troupe of Huguangxie did not know what to do, some said that these plays were sent out of the palace, and some people said that Concubine Chen loved listening to the drama very much, and the first emperor let these plays accompany Concubine Chen to the funeral.
Although Jieyu is a low-level concubine, she is also a serious little master, and it is really a joke to live in such a ghost place.
Xin Wei frowned, and was about to reply, Yu Zhaoyi stepped forward with the stove in her hand, and said first: "Sister Cao, the eldest princess will be here in a while." ”
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the eldest princess embarrassed Cao Zhaoyi in public, which made Cao Zhaoyi ashamed to see people for many days.
After Yu Zhaoyi mentioned this, everyone remembered this.
The muscles on Cao Zhaoyi's mouth twitched, and she glared at Yu Zhaoyi fiercely.
Xin Wei only then noticed that this was located in Zhaoyi.
Yu Zhaoyi is dressed in jade orchid brocade, a pair of willow leaf eyes with a little red mole at the end of the eyes, a Tianshui blue agate hairpin inserted between the buns, hanging emerald green short tassels, a smile is elegant and calm, quite a noble lady's demeanor.
The two Zhaoyi were standing together, so much so that she thought the two were on good terms, but at the moment, it wasn't.
Thinking about it like this, Yu Zhaoyi has been in the palace for more than two years, has always been low-key, does not like to be in the limelight, and does not like to quarrel with others, how can he make friends with Cao Zhaoyi, who loves to make trouble the most?
probably Cao Zhaoyi took the initiative to get up.
And this is located in Zhaoyi, who has always been low-key, but offended Cao Zhaoyi by speaking out for her, which shows that she is also a person of temperament.
When Cao Zhaoyi walked away, Xin Wei stepped forward and said, "Thank you, Sister Zhaoyi." ”
Yu Zhaoyi smiled.
"She has always been like this, and many sisters in the palace have complaints, so you don't have to worry about it. As for the altar Du Kang, sister, what you said is right, the master wants to embarrass you, and give you poisonous wine Bailing is, no matter whether the wine is rare, it is the emperor's grace, and no one should put a beak. ”
Xin Wei said: "What my sister said is reasonable. ”
Yu Zhaoyi looked at her pleasing eyes, took her hand, and said: "Others only know that the drama has lived in Huguang Pavilion, but they don't know that Huguang Pavilion and the eldest princess's Fangfei Hall are far away, and they are looking at the same scenery, where can they go?" ”
Naturally, it's not bad.
Although it is a play, it is a place where Concubine Chen lingers, and the pavilions and pavilions in the lake pavilion are all built by the best craftsmen, and the materials are also extremely extravagant.
Xin Wei lowered her eyebrows and said: "I was born poor, and the roof of the place where I lived since I was a child was made of straw, which does not shelter from the wind in winter and the rain in summer. It is very fortunate to have a place like Huguang Pavilion, and I will not take what others say to heart. ”
Yu Zhaoyi's eyes were sparkling with stars, and she was a little moved by pity.
"You don't have a good background, don't be strong in the palace," Yu Zhaoyi lowered her voice and said, "Some of them are sick in the palace, so they love to bully those with low backgrounds, you must be cautious in your words and deeds." ”
Xin Wei agrees with this.
Some people are bored and try their best to find fun in others, while others see it early and want to live in peace.
Yu Zhaoyi said this to her, and she sincerely did it for her.
